Wade Rich heads home…to Bradenton Motorsports Park
/As I am sure that most have you have seen by now via our previous article, Wade Rich, who is a standard bearer in our industry last week. Well, I received word that Wade and Victor are going to be joining forces at Bradenton Motorsports Park effective immediately.
I spoke with Victor earlier this morning in regards to Wade coming on as the new track manager at BMP. Victor is extremely excited to have Wade back at home as the two of them prepare for the future at BMP. Wades title as of now will be as track manager, and he will work side-by-side with Victor who has owned BMP for the last couple of years.
This is an opportunity for track, events, programs, and more to grow to another level. Wade brings an immeasurable amount of experience with him to BMP. This is his home, and we here at BMP are excited to welcome him home.” Stated Victor.
Victor stated that after he found out the Wade had left OSW he absolutely had to reach out and discuss having Wade join the BMP family again. We both have a forward vision for the future of the track and everything invoked with the track. It is that forward thinking vision that we both have that will push Bradenton Motorsports Park to the top tier or premiere tracks in all of drag racing.
Wade’s skill set is matched by few if any in the industry, and that, along with his personal drive to succeed and his work ethic make this a great fit. I would have have been stupid not to try and convince Wade to come here after he left Orlando said Victor. Wade and I will work to create new events, grow current events, and provide racers, fans, and media the best track possible in the future.
In speaking with Wade this morning, he stated to me that the downtime we are experiencing made him realize that it was time for a change in life. He had no idea that he would be back home at BMP, much less anywhere else so quickly, but said that after Victor contacted him and that had an extensive discussion about the vision and plans for BMP it was exactly what he could see his future as. Wade stated that he is excited to hit the ground running and work with Victor on making the visions come true that they see for the future.
Starting today I begging the newest chapter in my life, stated Wade. A place to grow, and a place that I will do everything that I can to see these visions become reality,
